Hair Care Tips for Premium Raw Vietnamese Hair
Premium hair deserves gentle, dedicated care to maintain its silky softness, natural shine, and airy flow. Whether you wear it straight, curled, or color-treated, follow this expert monthly routine to keep your bundles looking brand new and luxurious for years to come..
Wash Day Routine (Once a Month)
Step 1: Olaplex Treatment (If Needed)
Olaplex No.0 + No.3 is recommended only if your hair has been:
• Professionally bleached or colored, or
• Heat styled frequently (daily flat ironing or curling)
Skip Olaplex if:
• This is your very first wash before installation, and
• The hair has not been bleached
Important: Bleaching should always be performed by a licensed professional colorist. A skilled stylist will know the best aftercare routine to keep your hair healthy and vibrant. However, you should use Olaplex No.0 + No.3 every single time you wash your colored or bleached hair, which for most will be monthly, to maintain strength and repair.
How to apply Olaplex:
• Hair must be dry before applying No.0
• Apply No.0 generously and leave on for 10 minutes
• Without rinsing, apply No.3 over No.0 and leave on for 30–45 minutes
• Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water
Important Note About Washing Raw Hair Premium raw Vitnamense hair is most fragile when wet. You may notice temporary matting or difficulty managing while shampoo is on the hair — this is completely normal. To protect your bundles:
• Avoid combing or detangling when the hair is wet or coated with shampoo.
• Only detangle using a wide-tooth comb after applying conditioner or deep conditioner.
• Once dry, the hair will return to its natural softness, flow, and manageability.
Step 2: Clarify (Every 2–3 Months After First Installation)
Clarifying shampoo removes buildup and refreshes the hair’s natural movement. Use only after installation and after you’ve worn the hair for some time. There’s no need to clarify before your first install.
• If your hair is super greasy and not color treated, use Malibu C Un-Do-Goo Clarifying Shampoo—it’s the best option to deeply cleanse and remove heavy buildup.
• If your hair is dry, or color treated/bleached, use Mizani Moisture Fusion Gentle Clarifying Shampoo—it cleanses gently without drying the hair out further.
How to clarify:
• Shampoo 1–2 times, rinsing thoroughly with lukewarm water between washes
• Use clarifying shampoo every 2–3 months only
• Follow with a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner
Step 3: Cleanse & Condition (Monthly)
Maintain softness and shine with one of our recommended shampoo and conditioner options. See the charts below to choose your best option for your hair needs and budget.
• Gently massage shampoo into hair, rinse with lukewarm water
• Shampoo 1–2 times as needed to cleanse fully
• Apply conditioner generously, leave on for 5–10 minutes
• Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water

Step 4: Deep Conditioning (Monthly)
Maintain the softness, movement and longevity of your bundles with monthly deep conditioning. This restores essential moisture and keeps the hair looking and feeling luxurious.
• Apply generously from mid-lengths to ends
• Cover with a plastic cap for enhanced absorption
• Leave on for 15–30 minutes
• Rinse with cool water to seal the cuticle and lock in moisture
Step 5: Drying
• Never blow dry your hair—air drying preserves integrity and softness
• Gently blot with a towel; avoid rubbing
• Hang hair to dry completely before styling or storing
• Avoid drying in direct sunlight as this may dry the hair out
